Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

5 = 5

Riveting stuff

Probably how you wanted your comment to look.

Markdown doesn't recognize a new line that isn't either double (for a full paragraph break), or preceded by a double space or a \.
Markdown is a stupid design, in my opinion. Can't even write \ without actually writing \\.

I find it interesting that PieFed renders that comment correctly - there seems to be a fundamental difference in how it renders markdown.

Markdown isn’t a set standard so the rules are made up and rendering is all willy-nilly
